1. I only ever eat three jellybean flavors- Bubblegum, orange, and lemon

I'm Italian??? Hmm, I never knew. I adore lasagna by the way, "it's the food of the gods, the stuff of dreams..." (Garfield. Heh.) I think these are just stereotypes. I mean, just because you're British doesn't mean you're rich and just because you're Japanese you don't have to like anime/manga. Oh yeah, I have no Italian ancestry whatsoever. I'm so Chinese, I practically have tea running through my veins :D

Wah! "Scam" typo! Need to fix immediately (if you're reading this I've already fixed it)

I was poking around in Ms. Rossiter's (English teacher's) cl-assoom when I spotted some laminated weird-sounding insults (presumably for the higher grades she teaches), my favorite being: "What, you egg! Young fry of treachery!" There's also ominous-sounding ones, like :"Pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell." Just felt like sharing those *ahem* ancient insults with you guys.

We're learning abot psychosis and other special diseases in Science, and I mentioned the Miniature Killer and her reaction to bleach. Even Mr. Gillis, who says CSI is phony, thought that was fascinating. Oh yeah, and today, I kept annoying everyone with CSI quotes. Quote of the day: "There are three things in life that people like to stare at: A rippling stream, a fire in a fireplace, and a zamboni going 'round and 'round." Plus, I'm trying to memorize the Longfellow poem from "Ending Happy", there's one verse not mentioned in the episode. I think I've got Sara's goodbye letter down pat though, let's see if I can remember it:

"Gil,

You know I love you. I feel I've loved you forever. Lately, I haven't been feeling very well. Truth be told, I'm tired. Out there in the desert, under that car that night, I realized something, and I haven't been able to shake it. Since my father died, I've spent almost my entire life with ghosts. We'd been like close friends, and out in the desert, it occurred to me that it was time for me to bury them. No matter how hard I try to fight it off, I'm left with the feeling that... I have to go. I don't know where I'm going, but I know that I have to do this. If I don't, I'm afraid I'll self-destruct and worse, you'll be there to see it happen. Be safe. Know that I tried very hard to stay. Know that you are my one and only. I will miss you with every beat of my heart. Our life together was the only home I've ever really had. I wouldn't trade it for anything. I love you. I always will. Goodbye."

Tell me if I've got it wrong please ;)

BTW, you know that sometimes the quotes get muddled up (good example is the beauty one "Since when are you interested in beauty?")? I found twiztv.com, they have CSI transcripts with accurate dialogue and quotes.

Add more later, can't think of anything else to say.

Just watched "Ending Happy", loved it. It was so funny, especially the old man who said somebody shot his wife (everyone thought he was crazy, his wife died ages ago, but someone did shoot his wife's photo :D), then there was the Binky/Doris thing, where they were arguing about Happy but then realized the room was rigged for sound, and started saying "I love you" to each other and hugging a lot (then Brass came in and was like: "And I love you both".) SO hilarious! Then there was that thing (thing again) when Sara says: "Well, I'm pretty sure I don't make you sad," then Grissom says: "No, you make me happy". That scene made me smile so much my cheeks hurt (sorry, Grillows shippers :P) Need to go to sleep now :(

I guess getting an AEA IS good!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can put up with anything now, because my parents are getting me the Season 7 DVD of CSI!!!!!!!!! ~SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~ We're really behind here (as mentioned previously) and plus, the episodes are all messed up (I'm watching Leapin' Lizards tonight), so I practically NEEEEEEED the DVD ;)

Add more later, nothing's coming to mind now, my weekends are usually pretty boring...

I got an Academic Excellence Award at the assembly today (see previous blog entry), that was why I had to sit at the front. Boils down to this: Is getting an AEA good or bad? I know some of you guys'll say that it's brilliant, wowza, blah blah. It is quite brilliant, wowza, blah blah. But since I'm the only one who got an AEA in my class, everyone's like "Why do you even BOTHER to get good grades?" In fact, in Math today, Oscar went right in my face and was like: "NERD". The sub teacher, Mr. Ross (heard the whole thing) was like "What are you doing?" and then that bald-faced liar Oscar went: "Nothing. Just asking some advice." The NERVE of him, when the sub heard the whole thing! :x Anyways, before the AEA, I wasn't exactly flavor of the month either, so there isn't much difference. Oh yeah, and Mrs. Sanker (Math, the sub was only for one period, today was a double) gave me a hug for the AEA. I must admit I can't remember the last time I hugged somebody ( apart from this, of course :roll: )

Enough stuff about geekiness. Today just before PE (we had a session in the classroom; talked about smoking), Marcel was listing off names of girls he'd like to screw to Jeremy (not that any of them would even go near him, he picks his nose and eats it), then Gigi came in and was like "What are you guys talking about?" So I said: "Marcel's telling everyone who he'd like to screw." And then Jeremy was like: "That's the first time I've heard you say the word 'screw'." Then I retorted: "Screw doesn't have to be anything nasty. It can be just like screwdriver or something. I'm sure your dad says 'screwdriver' sometimes." Then our conversation was interrupted because Mr. Stach poked his head out of his classroom and told us to come in.

OK, whatever. That's enough boringness for now. Might add more later.

(This blog isn't exactly cheerful, by the way. Maybe I'll add something funny later.)

Just had this idea when I was in the toilet :): Does anyone want to guess Oscar's last name??? Hint: It's the name of an animal with big front teeth that builds dams (shouldn't be TOO difficult, right?)

Oh almost forgot, today in PE we had to do a stupid worksheet on what influences our behavior (like parents, grandparents, friends, etc.). My top three:

1. Parents 2. CSI 3. Jorja Fox!

I'm not going to bother signing these anymore, I'm just too lazy ;)

I was lucky, but I don't know which day I was lucky on(see previous blog entry). On Tuesday I found out that I'd be going to my BFF Vivian's house to watch CSI (She has cable, I don't :cry: ). Yesterday, I found out that the episode was to be "Living Doll". Today, I managed to stay alive until 5pm to watch it. So, YOU decide, on which day did I get lucky?

About "Living Doll": Absolutely whipplescrumtiously fantabulously extroadinarily AMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZING!!!!!!! Brilliant acting all around, but I especially thought the actress who played Natalie Davis did a good job of pretending to be a crazy psychotic serial killer :roll:

Dunno what else to say, might add something later (after I've scanned Ashleigh's blogs and come up with a good quiz to steal), oh yes, I am SO NOT looking forward to the assembly tomorrow. I am however looking forward to bringing my jelly babies to school :D

Dang it! :x I accidentally wore my lucky undershirt today, I usually wear it on Thursday. Now my lucky day won't be lucky anymore:cry: I wonder if I'll be tempted to commit suicide tomorrow because of my Music exam score. I probably will be, if I don't wear my lucky undershirt :cry:!!!

He's Russian or something) and Sharon have to sit in front too. And Samantha. At least I'll be sitting with people I know *sigh*

Periods 1 & 2: Humanities

Was okay I guess, learned a lot. I used to hate Mr. Thomas because he's a perfectionist, but at least he's a FUNNY perfectionist (unlike my 6th grade teacher) :P Anyways, there's this Japanese guy in my class, he's a midget and kinda looks like an elf, except he's totally addicted to Runescape (I'm pretty sure elves don't play video games) and he's really hyperactive. He's sometimes quite funny, but mostly he just gets us all in trouble. Ok, enough about Hisataka. Back to today, Humanities: So Hisataka was being disruptive as usual, and Francesca, who sits across from him was like: "HISA!" to get him to shut up. Mr. Thomas just stared. A couple minutes later, (I have NO IDEA what Francesca said/did) Hisataka yelled: "FRAN!" and Mr. Thomas just said (something like that, I can't remember exactly): "Do you two want some time alone together?"then everyone laughed because they just couldn't imagine Hisataks & Francesca together :D

Periods 3 & 4:

Drama, pretty much normal. We were pretending to be different people and taking turns Hotseating each other in character. So our group was hotseating Joyce, and someone asked: "What is your deepest fear?" and she was like: "My dad" and it just sounded so hilarious :D

Period 5:

Science, was pretty boring. I usually love Science, but today we did something about measuring the area of circles, and I was thinking: WTF!?!?!?!?!???!!?!?!? I THOUGHT THIS WAS MATH!!?!?!?!??!?!? (BTW, I hate Math)

Period 6:

My most dreaded lesson-Chinese. UGH! (Not much more to say)

Periods 7 & 8:

English-just as normal, blahdiblah (I'll spare you the details)

THE END OF MY DAY! (THANK GOONESS!)

P.S. Just found out: Pantyhose is WICKED for sliding around in on hardwood floors :D

02-25-2008Whenever your name has to be picked out of a hat (or rather, a bag) and you don't want it to come first, second, third or anywhere near the beginning, for that matter, fold up the paper as small as you can. Trust me, I've tried this about 5 times, and mostly I got picked last or second last.

I've inserted a photo above to see if it works. If it does, expect to see a photo quiz here soon! If it doesn't, I apologize for the short and not sweet blog entry.:P

About the cheese bread killing:

I've developled a new M.O. for serially killing cheese bread- I eat almost all the slices in the loaf, but leave the last slice in the bag. It's better to say: "I ate a lot of the cheese bread, but there's still some left" than "I ate all the cheese bread." Besides, the last slice usually doesn't have a lot of cheese, so it's not that much of a loss :roll:

RULES: Only answer in pictures. Go to photobucket and type in your answer. Pretty easy. Thing is you can only use the first page. Have fun!

1. What's your name?

Charlotte

2. Favorite food?

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! And yes, it has happened to me before: The whole scoop of ice cream just jumped off the cone, it was so annoying:x

3. Relationship status?

4. Celebrity Crush?

That'd have to be Eric Szmanda:oops:

5. Fave Show?

God, it's the only TV show I can actually WATCH without falling asleep:roll:

I dunno...

15. How do you feel?

*sigh*

For once, none of my school friends are on Facebook. You know why? Because they're all enjoying themselves (*ahem* Claire probably isn't though, she's probably bored to death, Asha's not there, but I think Julie went???) at the VALENTINE'S DAY DANCE!!! It IS too late, because of the stupid RCSV. Not that I care, because I'm not even AT the dance! Most (correction: all but a few) of my friends are now at the dance, eating pizza and, well, I suppose, dancing (though Jayme and Holly probably aren't). Does it bother me that all of my friends have actual LIVES? Well, yes, a bit. I'm kinda making a mountain out of a molehill though. Not one of my friends has someone to dance with at *ahem* A DANCE (as far as I know) :roll:. But as the posters say: "You don't have to bring a date, the right person might be just around the corner!" Oh, well, it all boils down to my topic title question: Why can't I get a life? Signed: Socially Life-less Reject, Charlotte P.S. Wingki "is going to eat as much as she can and make herself exremely happy": Of course she can stuff herself. God, she's so skinny and short, she's practically as tall as her little brother. *Sigh* Sorry Wingki, I'm jealous :oops:
